Creation

DARREN NELSON

God says I am
and infinite diversity of Soul
is imaged forth as man,
beloved, beautiful, secure.
"In the beginning" never was
in embryo; nor is man's measure
from a family history,
environment, or circumstance.

Mind is the continuity of man,
knows all that has been,
is, will be. Mind makes
His image as the climax of His
glorious infinity.
God's love,
like clearings in the meadow
of our days, reveals
man's full identity.
